Level 1836 is the first level in Apricot Alley and the 225th mixed mode level (97th jelly-ingredients). To pass this level, you must clear 36 single, 18 double jelly squares and release 4 gummi dragons in 20 moves or fewer.
When you complete the level, Sugar Crush is activated and will score you additional points.
The dragons have to go down a lot of spaces, and with four of them, it could be rather difficult.
However, the dragons do come plentifully and they do spawn a pretty decent rate.
There are a good number of jellies to clear, 72 layers total.
However, clearing all of them can be pretty easy. There are a lot of single jellies, and the double jellies aren't even hard to reach.
There are stuck zones in the first and second squares. On top of that, due to cascades, there are chances where the dragons will slide into the sixth and ninth columns. When this happens, this level will be harder to complete.
Four colours can make this level a breeze.
The jellies and dragons are worth 112,000 points.[1] Hence, an additional 48,000 points is required to earn one star.

Strategy[]
Try not to let the dragons slide to stuck zone, and combine special candies to clear the jellies and bring the dragons down.
Look for an opportunity to move a dragon out of the stuck zone if it does slide there.
Whenever you can clear chocolate so it does not take over the board, do it.
Try to make matches directly under the dragon.
